abka: catching a set split with Dave June 2009 (trapezecatch)

Went trapezing on Thursday. It was a bad call as I was tired and stressed about my presentation. I worked on swing and got "flat" a few times although I'm not pushing my hips forward enough on the 7. Tried to catch set split, but on the practice swing had my hands too close together, then on the 1st try the top of my foot hit the wrong side of the bar and I was too tired to correct. I was going to stop then but after a break I decided to try a knee hang (the least physically demanding catch). Caught the kneehang with Neil. It was good to end on a positive note after feeling somewhat discouraged. Trapeze is a good incentive to get enough sleep. When I come back I start my IFW (intensive flying workshop)! Every week I'll fly with the same people and instructors (and maybe catchers, but that's less certain). I'm very excited!
